You can call it folk, but for you to know is a Greek song, written and performed, in time, by legends of the Greek traditional music, like Markos Bambakaris, Basilis Tsitsanis, Manolis Xiotis (Jimmy Henrix was a HUGE fan of Manolis Xiotis + he had said those words "These is a guy that is faster and better than me and he is Manolis Xiotis" he was admired him so much, that he visited Greece many times, only to see and hear Xiotis to play his 4 string mpouzouki)...
Respect to all musicians and all kinds...is not bad to know the origins of any song... :p
Cheers ;)
Whether’s he’s right or left handed, what’s the advantage of playing with the strings upside down?
so, its a lefty, but with a strat headstock, in reverse, with strings upside down....what?
I'm very well-versed in this because I play upside-down guitar... but I'm right handed so I use left-handed guitars.
THANK YOU
THAT WAS FUN
THE REAL DEAL
this guy is fuckin awesome
Wait, what? Dick uses Konokol?
Gimme Dick Dale ANY DAY!
Dale did everything he said. I think he left out that he was the Mayor of Newport Beach once too.
His Greek heritage gave him most of his musical background so he knew how to beat all those notes outta one string at a time.
Yeah, he IS "THE KING OF THE SURF GUITAR".
Dick is a magic man.
It just hurts after a while. Not so easy to finde that signature guitar in europe-.-
I thought they were a good band.?
One of the things is sure, Dale was one of the last if not very last musician Leo sought feedback from. Which says something. I know that Leo traveled up and down the west coast getting feedback on the Telecaster... which in my opinion is why it's damn near perfect.
Who does that these days? Who's done that since? Can you imagine the President of Marshall or Fender going around town visiting the bars and clubs with equipment saying "Here do a set with this..... tell me what you think"
Fed to the teeth. Dick, forget this melody, Please !
When you say bull shit
that's the obvious secret!
He's tough as iron and inspirational for continuing to tour despite all his problems, but he said he'd rather be resting and off the road, can't perform a full set (or even a full "Misirlou"), and does only what he can physically handle, all to pull in some precious dollars. Again, while I admire his determination, it saddens and frustrates me that he has no assured income or healthcare coverage. (Being Canadian, having neither is alien to me.)
misurlou or somthing.
Then why did Jimi Hendrix cite him as an influence and included the line "We shall never hear surf music again" in his song "third rock from the sun"
That was because when Hendrix was recording that song DD had his first of many bouts with cancer and wasn't expected to live through that. Hendrix did a direct tribute to DD in that song.
Still looks healthy! Big influence on Hendrix's volume
My bandmate was playing a lot of Dick Dale when I introduced him to really heavy strings, he went nuts over them, doesn't play anything else now. He's a FAR better player than I am, and you can really hear the difference when someone skilled uses something that works with how they play. They're brilliant for tremolo picking, he commented that you can really "dig in" to the string aggressively. Not just for surf either, they almost work better with buckets of distortion (eg playing certain songs by Ministry). Tremolo picking palm muted 16th notes at 210bpm feels so natural it's unreal. The guitar blends perfectly with the kick drum if you get the tone right.
started laughing amazing when you see this
GO on ol papa
love to all

He is still LOUD AS HELL.
But it does surf!!!
Djent, djent, djent!!!! Or is it Djang, djang, djang?
Practice all day everyday, influence is one thing, but you have to strive to learn how to play like yourself!
British people live longer than Americans. Two reasons -
A. Our health care
B. We don't sell guns to deranged children.
A great man
Great talent and kind soul.
Enjoyedvtalkingbto him at the Vogue in Indianapolis years ago.
Autographed my guitar, gave me his guitar pick which was melted on one side from playing that night.
I corresponded with him on e mail and he said the kindest things to me when I told him my brother was terminal with cancer and his music helped heal my sadness in my soul.
Most people would not have given me the time of day.
He was a legend I'm more ways than just a musician.
He was a legend as a kindred spirit.
, that us obvious.
g unit
I love it man. Nothing like prostate orgasms.
He’s a giant in the formation of rock n roll!
Is he exaggerating? Yes. Is he lying? Not really. There's probably a lot of truth in what he says, but obviously it's from his perspective and so he probably makes himself the centre of the story even when he may have not played as big of a role. Some of the stuff he does say sounds a bit off and obviously, as someone pointed out, his claim of being able to play every instrument is a huge exaggeration and I'm sure he even knows that. He probably meant something more along the lines of "I can play anything with enough time despite my lack of musical technicalities." He's, hopefully, just saying he picks up instruments quickly without any formal training. In which case, "I can play anything" starts to make more sense if used in that context.
body innovative?
I'll take a back a little of what I said about his influence on Fender designs in that I have a friend who was there and does confirn that he did help with the keyboard designs though two other people claim that he overstates his infuence. All three of these gentlemen have great familiarity with Fender during the Dale time frame and beyond. They shall remain nameless.
There is no question of his talent and that he was a driving force for Leo developing more powerful guitar amps.
In the 80s I was in a band that opened for him twice and I the saw he and his son perform twice, my choice, my ticket purchase ('06 or '07 I think). My brief meetings with him were always pleasant and I was respectful due to his high pl ce in the development of the music I love. But if the statements about his new signature acoustic (I'm sure it's a fine guitar) are any indicater of his design innovations it leaves me a bit skeptical as to the wieght of his claims.
I also have friends who have played in Dick's bands and I'll leave those names and stories untold out of deference to them.
No one is above a critique of attitude and claims, not even Dick Dale (see Brian Williams).
The beard stays.
I ALMOST bought a fender (yes 1963) for $125.00 (should have)
CALLING HIS WORDS BS IS SHAMEFUL...
AS IS YOUR BEARD
I've seen him MANY MANY TIMES since 1963, plus on Back to the Beach (89) imdb. com has the info and Dick isn't a molester, etc..he's cool.
Way to embarrass yourself buddy.
You’re the kind of ignoramus that would think Link Wray or Les Paul’s technique “stinks”!
